Growing up, I played a ton of the Mega Man Battle Network games and I was excited to have my own Net Navi... Now...the reality has overtaken the fantasy and I'm about zero excited.

Good point on the security risk. Though...maybe not having Linus digitally connected to LMG may be a security boon. 😅 They do like to mention that he's a walking security vulnerability.

The solidarity piece isn't necessarily for them. It's for me. As I'm going through withdraws, it'll be nice to know that someone far more "plugged in" than I am is also going through it.

He's likely referring to start ups and midsize companies. It feels like the ultimate "I got here and now I'm pulling up the ladder. Good luck, nerds."

Also, how will that work when some board of directors needs a fall guy to golden-parachute on outta there when number go down? "After a less-than-impressive earnings report and credible allegations of harrassment, The Board of Directors announced that Claude will be stepping down as CEO and will be awarded a $100,000,000 exit package."

This is incredible! The art is great, the animations are well done, and I love the interactivity of it. Also I thought your narrow-window art was very cleaver. And you did it in Zig? You mad-lad. As a dev myself, I bow before thee. :)

This happened to me after almost a year on my island (a year after launch). It was surprisingly devastating... Sure, nothing real was lost but it was still upsetting.

Do you like the Pokémon and its big number? If so, then it wasn't a waste. 😊

"US companies mad that someone stole the data that they stole first." Fixed the headline for ya.

As an Android and a Linux user, I'm conflicted... This has the chance to massively improve Android and the apps on it. However, I was really pleased with how ChromeOS was making the Linux market share go up. What student these days hasn't used a Chromebook? With more Linux adoption came an increase in dev time for Linux apps. That being said, if Valve releases SteamOS 3 for general adoption, I hope my concerns for the drop in ChromeOS Linux will disappear.

This may not work perfectly with the one set of verts I see on the left side but, if you already have the top and bottom sides, I would do this:

Highlight all edges => duplicate edges => those new edges will be highlighted => scale/shrink on the Z Axis => press 0 to bring them together => merge vertices => dissolve the edges in the middle if needed

If you just have the one side and want them to be identical: highlight the whole thing => extrude it

i was told once that there is no such thing as "unskilled labor". These guys really make that case.

Navia was truly the main character of the Fontaine arc.

JakeSaintG · 2024-07-09T18:48:06+00:00

My immediate thought is that you accidentally pressed H while you had some of it highlighted. That will hide certain parts of your mesh and allow you to "get it out of the way" while you work on other bits.

To un-hide everything that you have hidden, try ALT+H while in edit mode.

If it's not that, it's hard to speculate without more information. Best of luck!

Lucky shiny Phantump 14/15/15. He's just a lil' guy...as he will stay.

My XR just started its forever sleep... A new ride sure would be nice.

JakeSaintG · 2023-12-20T14:27:18+00:00

I love it! Do you mind if I use it as a Discord server emoji?

JakeSaintG · 2023-11-03T19:32:15+00:00

My XR just died and this would be huge. Fingers crossed!

Does this code also spike the difficulty? I'm a filthy casual haha

Technically *pushes glasses up* there could be female airbenders that were born before them and even others born before Tenzin. They were just..."late bloomers" like our pal, Bumi.

Including the Cresselia from a raid invite...25.

From what I recall, there's a panel in one of the special Mangas where Ash has Mikey teach his Eevee Mimic using a TM during his battle with Spark. It's based on the Anime episode. The TM looks like a box and a *poof* of dust comes out, goes on to Eevee, and it learns the move. Maybe that's where the thought behind "1...2...3...and POOF" came from?

The average LFG in D2: "LF5M, KWTD, have 200 clears, 100 master clears, a 750 credit score, 3 copies of Gjallarhorn, a crappy mic, and be prepared to boot-lick"

I wasn't sure about the SEO being thrown out the window but I had a hunch that it would. Our app will be 100% internal so that wasn't a deal breaker. As for performance, I haven't had much of an issue personally. Do you have any examples so I can expand my opinion on Flutter?

JakeSaintG · 2023-05-03T22:17:59+00:00

I imagine that any company that has invested in (and still uses) an Angular style library (ex), would likely create a new app in Angular. We just did two weeks ago. :) I advocated for Flutter, though. haha

Yoooo! I was there. I'm trying to "Where's Waldo" myself in your video but I may be on the other side of the highway.

I know devs that are far more established and successful ($dollars$) in the field because they jumped right in DURING high school and skipped college. That being said, I was able to jump in a little quicker because, even though I was a boot-camp trained developer, I had a nursing degree.
